But she's not telling and it's not because s doesn't want you to know. The problem, researchers said recently at a symposium on aging held in New York City, is that this secret is tightly locked up in her genes. And until scientists can crack the genetic code, consumers may as well save the g money they spend on products and procedures. Jeanne Louise Calment was born in Arles, France on Feb. 21, 1875, and died Aug. 4, 1997, at the age of 122.

People don't live to be 110 "because they don't age; it's a fortuitous, genetic roll of the dice, so there is not an intervention available to people who are still alive," says L. Stephen Coles, MD, PhD, a gerontologist with the Los Angeles Gerontology Research Group at UCLA. "No one is likely to beat Jeanne Calment's record in our lifetime because she was so exceptional. Siblings and parents of supercentenarians also live extremely long lives, he adds. There has been a lot of confusing data suggesting that environment is more important than genes at dictating life span, he notes, but "if you only study supercentenarians, it's probably 70 percent genes and 30 percent environment because it is your genes that allow you to get to a very old age," he says. .

It focuses on the long-terrecognizing the fact that successful investing isnt about timing the markets, but about time in the markets. Questionable investment advice provides the same, small selection of recommendations to all investors regardless of their portfolio. The focus is on buying into hot stocks and market momentum rather' than focusing on undiscovered opportunities. When evaluating advice, ask how it stacks up to these guidelines. The bottom line is that getting good investment advice should help everyone understand the potential risks that are being taken and what should be done to build and maintain a flexible portfolio. It should help to remain disciplined in investing and make decisions based on time-teste- d practices that will benefit over time, not from quick gains. Above all, investment advice should help develop an investment strategy that fits a particular need and style and will help a portfolio weather the markets inevitable ups and downs.
